So happy with Paper moon Wilford. The staff and activities are absolutely brilliant. Staff are so kind, approachable and go the extra mile. The activities are really creative for toddlers to fully engage and explore. The Christmas event was unbelievable; showing how genuinely caring and thoughtful staff
are to ensure that everything is magical for the children focusing on a true family ethos for all.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy has been coming to Paper Moon for nearly two years and he loves it. He loves the staff, plays well with the other kids and enjoys all the activities they put on such as rattle and roll. I like the support progression from baby room to toddler room and then to pre-school. The staff go to
so much effort around seasonal events too such as parties, fairs, Christmas and Halloween celebrations which makes it feel like a real family and community.

Our daughter has been attending Paper Moon for almost 3 years now. The nursery manager radiates warmth and is an exceptional leader. Many of the staff have been there for many years which gives great stability. All the staff create a really happy atmosphere. They pay great attention and get to know
each child's personality. The food is also brilliant. Parents and families are invited to regular parties which creates a real sense of community. Overall, we are so happy with our experience at Paper Moon Compton Acres.

Paper moon nursery is just fantastic and the staff are amazing they genuinely care for the children and nothing is too much trouble. My 18 month old granddaughter absolutely loves going and she's come on so much with her talking and confidence and socialising with other children. She has shoes and a
coat she only wears for nursery and on the days she doesn't go she will point to her shoes and coat because she wants to go bless her.I would recommend paper moon to anyone fabulous nursery very well organised and plenty of activities for the children and the staff are all amazing.

My grandson always seems happy when I collect him.
He is confident to ask staff to find his belongings and there is a genuine interest in his well-being. A lot of effort is put into him being able to explore his interests.
What a great team, whoever I talk to on arrival, they know which room he will
be in and his key worker tells me about his morning and wishes us a good afternoon.

The manager always goes above and beyond to assist with childcare at short notice if it is required and shows great care towards all of her nursery children.
The staff in pre-school always take the time to say good morning and listen to a handover and will inform you of your child's day. Two members
of staff in particular are always lovely and engage enthusiastically with the children.
Papermoon are always trying to see how they can put in more activities for the children and take them out to the park.

Since joining Paper Moon, we have felt nothing but welcome and supported. Our little boy has had trouble separating from us, and the team at Paper Moon were amazing in guiding us through it. They have made time for him and us, and made sure that we are given all the support we need to make the transition
to nursery.

We wholeheartedly recommend Paper Moon Day Nursery (Compton Acres Campus). A close friend initially recommended it, and it has exceeded our expectations. The nursery provides a safe, warm, and welcoming environment, and the staff are professional, energetic, and patient.
Every time I pick up my child,
I hear laughter filling the nursery. The teachers are always engaged-encouraging, comforting, or simply spending quality time with the children. Their genuine care is evident.
As a family whose first language isn't English, we were touched by how the teachers supported our child. They even asked for a list of common words in our home language to ease communication. Their effort made a world of difference.
We are truly grateful for this nurturing and supportive environment and highly recommend it to any parent looking for a place where their child can feel happy, safe, and thrive.

My daughter has been coming to the nursery for 6 months now and even at 18 months old, I can see she genuinely misses it on the days she is not there. Every morning I take her, she runs up to any member of staff with open arms showing all of them interact with the children and build great relationships
with them. It's lovely walking away each day knowing my daughter is so happy and comfortable being left there. I'd recommend this nursery to anyone. The staff are so lovely and attentive and put on so many fun and educational activities for the children.

We are in the process of settling in, 5 stars for everything. The staff are making this personal challenge so easy. They have gone out of their way to make us feel safe, happy and settled. The baby room are kind caring attentive and have already shown me an and exciting interesting environment for my
child to explore and grow. We get detailed updates though the day with pictures which has really helped to settle my mind. Well done Compton Acres Paper Moon Day Nursery.

My daughter was hesitant at first but has really warmed up to the amazing staff at the nursery.
Keep up the great work everyone.

Both of my children attend Paper Moon Compton Acres and I honestly cannot recommend it enough. The staff works incredibly hard to provide the children with a learning environment that is safe, fun, and nurturing. The staff clearly value the children as individuals and are skilled at developing bonds
that help the children settle in rapidly.

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.945) out of 10 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Compton Acres is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 32 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.945 for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Compton Acres is calculated as follows: ( (361 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 381 Ratings = 4.945
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Paper Moon Day Nursery - Compton Acres is based on 32 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 70 number of registered child places is 14, which has been reached with 32 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
